French/Danish Legal Matters
Our office provides specialist consultancy to both companies, financial institutions and private individuals on Danish-French legal matters. We emphasize the importance of maintaining a presence in an international context in order to be able to offer the best possible legal advice across national frontiers with an understanding of both linguistic and cultural differences. Thus, in addition to our Copenhagen office, we are firmly rooted on French soil with business partners in both Nice and Paris.
